Learn to let go of anger. Anger can help us if it produces the drive we need to overcome problems in our lives. However, when anger becomes resentment it only holds us back. Sometimes, we just have to let it go. Trust me, it takes a lot more energy to hold on to anger than it does to be happy. It’s a choice you can make.

I know you want to lose weight, but healthy weight loss doesn’t have to be stressful. My clients are busy people who find that working out relieves stress from the daily grind. The last thing I want to do is add more stress to their lives. The Lunch Box Diet is convenient and versatile. People enjoy making and eating their own creations and coming up with new secret recipes. Colleagues, clients and friends are always trying to get a peek in my box, and I love to share ideas. If people didn’t share then we would never learn.

Here’s another piece of advice: ‘Surround yourself with people you aspire to be like and you will end up being like them. Surround yourself with stressed people and you’ll end up being stressed yourself.’ The same can be said if you surround yourself with people who eat bad, junky foods. Have a think about who you are and how much of that is influenced by the people you surround yourself with. You may want to make a few changes in your life to help you on a more positive path, and this in turn will assist with your weight loss.

I’ve found that my clients like losing weight without the stress of traditional dieting. That’s why I allow occasional indulgences while helping you to retrain your taste buds to enjoy healthy foods.

You’ll find that when you eat a diet full of highly nutritious foods, you will be more energetic, stronger and healthier overall. When you are less susceptible to illness and feeling your best, stress is much easier to handle. In addition, you’ll discover that there’s no better stress-buster than a good session in the gym or other energetic pursuits. You don’t have to exercise on the Lunch Box Diet but you’ll probably be more inclined to get up and be active after only a short while on this diet.

Ultimately, my goal is to help you lose weight, learn to eat healthily for life, get you working out and do it all without stress. Leave those fad starvation diets behind and let’s delve into a little science.

We tend to beat ourselves up for being overweight. We feel as though it’s all about what we did or didn’t do. Guess what? It’s not all up to you. You weren’t necessarily the one who failed. There’s a better than zero chance that the diet failed you!

There are reasons why diets fail us. To understand this, you need to know a few basic nutritional principles. Don’t worry, I’ll make it fun! Keep reading.

The first is a simple maths equation.

weight maintenance: what goes in = what goes out

What goes in is obviously the food you consume measured in calories, which is the measurement term used for energy. Your energy intake must be equivalent to what your body burns in order to simply maintain your weight. What doesn’t get burned is stored as fat.
